Warrior of Scorpio

Speculative fiction is a broad umbrella category of narrative fiction referring to any fiction story that includes elements, settings and characters whose features are created out of imagination and speculation rather than based on attested reality and everyday life. That encompasses the genres of science fiction, fantasy, science fantasy, horror, alternative history, and magic realism.

Once again in the grip of the mysterious Star Lords of the
Constellation Scorpio, Dray Prescot found himself torn from the battles
of the Inner Sea of Kregen for a mission in the air. For it was now his
duty to carry his bethrothed, Delia, Princess Majestrix, by airboat to
that far kingdom from whence she had come.

But the route lay across
the gaunt mountains and shadowy jungles of the Hostile Territories -
and there Dray was to be plunged among stranger and more treacherous
peoples and customs than even his Kregen princess had ever known.
